Ralph McTell (born Ralph May, 3 December 1944) is an English singer-songwriter and acoustic guitar player who has been an influential figure on the UK folk music scene since the 1960s.

Not till Tomorrow is the 1972 album by British Folk musician Ralph McTell. Produced by Tony Visconti, it was McTell's fifth album to be released (aside from the remixed compilation Revisited) – and first album to chart – in the UK; and his third album to be released in the U.S. Ralph had been phoned and asked if he had decided on a title for the album and, wishing to give himself another day to come up with a title, responded "Not till tomorrow" which was misunderstood to be the name he had given to the album. By the time the mistake was found it was too late.

UKの歌手です。シンコペーションを多用したフィンガー・ピッキング・スタイル・ギターで有名なBlind Willie McTellに憧れて芸名をRalph McTellとしたそうです。この作品は5作目。地味ながら素晴らしい内容です。プロデュースはTony Viscontiで、sitar, organ, recorder, background vocalsなどとしてもクレジットされています。なお、あのMary Hopkinもbackground vocalsで参加しています (Mary Viscontiとクレジットされています)。
